Unbelievable what some folks do - and these peeps are IN CHARGE...?!?
Take the network executives and creative minds behind SNL - both! After the shootings of two black men and the ensuing protests, chaos that followed - PLUS the mass shootings in Dallas that cost the lives of five policemen. What does NBC and SNL decide to do? They go right ahead with their plans: rebroadcast an episode featuring guest-host Melissa McCarthy, which has this particularity about it that it begins with such an odd idea for a skit - white people unable to accept that some black celebrities are... well, black! Presented as a mock-trailer for another horrible Hollywood would-be blockbuster movie, this piece of crap that should have stayed at ''bad idea'' pile of scrapped written skits not only got done BUT IT GETS REPEATED NOW - AFTER ALL THAT TRANSPIRED?
Please tell me WHO are the morons responsible for such decisions...?
And how did they even land those JOBS...?!?
Of course the ''girly-ghostbusters'' film is coming out - and of course they want to cash in on this opportunity to underline that the entire cast is pretty much SNL-derived... Of course this has aired before - and OF COURSE you have to be able to laugh at just about any subject; to ease tension, to change things...
But there is a time and a place - for everything.
And this... is a bad time now.
Hell, even ENTERTAINMENT TONIGHT has become dead serious all of a sudden, talking about the last few days as a period best described as ''AMERICA IN CRISIS''...
If they know - howcome NBC doesn't know?
The would-be leader in network television news (pre-CNN era) has fallen to the level of competitor FOX...? Sure seems that way: because it is as clueless as the other guys can be!
Racism in America is going out of control - turning it into ridicule may be one way to make the masses come to their senses BUT IT CANNOT BE DONE RIGHT AFTER A MASSACRE OF THE KIND... (Hey, the Boston Massacre also had only 5 victims; the media back then called it a massacre, I certainly can on this luculent blog of mine, too! It is the luminous thing to do.)
WAKE UP AMERICA -
for while you are killing each other senselessly like that, your true enemies are readying themselves to deliver the final blow...
No idea who your true enemies are?
Then it is already over for you...
Makes sense, though: with sources of information as you have them...
But that... is another story.
